If you’re a *good* copywriter instead of looking for freelance clients
Look for ppl that understand that value of good copy and use it often: affiliates, direct response offer owners etc
And work out JVs with them: no salary, all profit share %
Few notes on this 👇
If you do this:
1) Make sure whoever you work out a JV with is legit, has scaled before and has the capacity to scale again, now
No sense in doing this w someone that can only push 20 sales a day (unless very high ticket)
2) A lot of copywriters won’t like this. Why?
- uncertainty. Freelancing regardless of how good their copy is gives them $
- they know they aren’t that good deep down. But the silver lining is: do this and it will force you to become great
3) How do you find these people?
Twitter has *some*. But you’ll find a lot in specific FB groups (find them yourself), as well as conferences.
If you’re good and can prove it and willing to work on performance only, many will take a chance on you
4) I’d suggest having some clause or parameter that forces them to test your copy at a minimum level of ad spend
In exchange for working no salary they agree to reasonably test it to XYZ spend, or whatever
Nothing worse than writing copy and it never runs
*not legal advice*
5) If you work with a product owner/brand open to DR cop:
Can also offer to advise on 1) their front end offer structure 2) their upsells 3) upsell copy
This way, you have multiple levers to increase their and your profit share.
Funnel and copy.
Full stack copywriting.
6) Some experienced product owners prefer to just pay a higher flat fee than profit share
But if you approach with a profit share %, they may offer you a much higher flat fee rate than you’d normally get just to have be one and done and stop the profit share convo
7) Finally and I’ll stop it here:
If you’re a great copywriter without much bankroll/cash yet
This is possibly the best way to 1) hone your skill 2) get REAL experience 3) make a lot of cash
Once you build up your own cash, you can do this for 100% profit on your own stuff
